Mutt
or Meow Monday is where we interview the author’s animal friends instead of interviewing
the author. Let’s see what the animals have to say!

It’s great to have
you here today.

Please introduce yourself.

My name
is Smokey, and I'm a Chinese crested hairless dog -- an unexpected choice for a
DEA drug-sniffing dog.That's why I can fool
the bad guys when I go undercover!When
I'm not working with my DEA handler, I'm author Marcia James' logo and virtual
pet.

What’s your favorite book by Marcia
James and why?

I'm a
little biased because I starred in Marcia's first book, At Her Command, a comic romantic suspense.If not for me, I don't think DEA agent Domino
Petracelli would have broken the drug-smuggling case at a D.C. sex club OR
found her happily ever after with Detective Dalton Cutter.Getting
the two of them to trust each other and declare their love was tougher than
sniffing out a gram of cocaine in a dirty baby diaper.

What’s your favorite scene that Marcia
James has written you into?

I'm the inspiration
for the Chinese crested dog Marcia has in each of her books.(I'm like her Hitchcock, who appeared in
almost all of his movies.)My favorite
scene in At Her Command is when I
found the drugs the bad guys had hidden in the battery compartments of the sex
club's vibrators.Some crooks are so
dumb!

What kind of scene do you wish Marcia
James would write for you?

So far,
I've always appeared alone in her books, and if I'm going to be a matchmaker
for the heroes and heroines, I think I deserve my own HEA with a pretty little
crestie female.;-)

What does Marcia James do to
celebrate when she finishes writing a book?

She's
big on wining-and-dining with her husband, but I'd prefer a few treats, a
fire-warmed family room, and some female crestie companionship!

What's next for you, Smokey?

Marcia
is writing a sequel to At Her Command,
and I'll be working with a male FBI agent and a female police detective to
bring down some more criminals.But,
ofcourse, I plan to do some matchmaking
while I'm at it.I'm just a romantic at
heart...Check out all of her books,
which feature cresties.If you love
Christmas stories, I recommend Heating Up
the Holidays.

Chicken, bacon or cheese?
Bacon, of course! It's the first choice
for any discerning dog.

I'm a
living example of the old adage: Don't judge a book by its cover. (Although Marcia James' books have the cutest
cresties on the covers!) I was rescued
from a shelter, and now I carry a badge -- attached to my collar. I may only be 13 inches high and weigh 12
pounds, but I can hold my own against any of those big canine
crimefighters. So I guess my final
thoughts would be, if you're in the
market for a new pet, please start at your local shelter. Adopt a shelter dog or cat. We're all special and waiting for love. ;-)

Nicky Paxton is up to her pointed
elf ears in work—filling in for a sick Santa’s helper, corralling kittens in a
mechanical winter wonderland and running her family’s department store chain.
With only 14 shopping days until Christmas, the last thing she needs is the
return of her high school heart-breaker.

Lawyer and single dad Chris Spencer
leaves the Los Angeles rat race to raise his five-year-old daughter, Holly, in
his sleepy Virginia hometown. His first goal is to make sure Holly has a
Christmas to remember. His carefully laid plans don’t include a second chance
with his first love.

When Holly asks the store Santa for
a “fairy pony puppy”, Chris enlists Nicky’s help to track down the elusive
item. Despite Nicky’s resolve not to re-gift her heart to Chris, their sexual
attraction could power the town’s holiday light display. With the help of mistletoe,
a hairless dog and a lonely child, Chris and Nicky just might get their
Christmas desires.

Fin's Fantasy Blurb

Navine is suffering Incubus addiction--a death sentence for any Sempire. When the search for a cure turns up only one rumor, Navine is horrified to learn the mutant Fin might be her only chance to live. Fearing the taint of the mutant more than fearing death, she continues to push him away as she tries to deny how his touch inflames her desire.

Fin was captivated by Navine the first moment their gazes locked but when she realized what he was--a male Sempire, a mutant, an abomination to the species--she’d rejected him. Burning with the need to touch her, taste her, he’ll do almost anything to save her even though she belittles him at every turn.

With time running out, passion must overcome prejudice to save Navine’s life and to grant Fin’s fantasy.
